More synchronicity, Barry. Pretty Woman is on TV right now as is My Fair Lady. What a surprise.

edgar, love Fats' Me and my Monkey. Thanks for the smile and the further info on that Italian man. Once again we appreciate your comments

Going to say goodnight with two songs.

First Bobby Darin

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SewmPX_KDb8

Now, a moon song replete with lyrics.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3GbeuHab7o&feature=related

Sail along, silvery moon,
Trail along lover's lane,
Sail along, silvery moon,
To my love again.

In the glow of your light,
Let me see her tonight,
Once again, hold her tight,
Back in lover's lane.
]
And then the whole world will seem brighter,
As we stroll hand in hand,
Two blue hearts will be lighhter,
You understand,

Sail along silvery moon,
Trail along lover's lane,
Sail along, silvery moon,
To my love again.

Thinking tonight of Just Brook. We discussed our dogs and loving them.

Great having London and Ontario with us today.

From Letty with love to the world

Billy Vaughn's song is a favorite of mine from my teen years. Bobby Darin - not much I can add to what I have said about him in the past.

to celebrate the birthday of the great spanish composer Manuel de Falla - here is his " Ritual Fire Dance " composition :

Quote:
Manuel de Falla y Matheu (23 November 1876 – 14 November 1946) was a Spanish Andalusian composer. With Isaac Albéniz, Enrique Granados and Joaquín Turina he is one of Spain's most important musicians of the first half of the 20th century.

@hamburgboy,
Hello Ms Letty from a sunburnt Country, our bushfires are still burning but for the moment under control. Next week could be a different story as the temperatures are on the rise again. Being a Saturday night I thought I play you a track from my favourite Flamenco Guitarist Armik.

It's Saturday morning here, everyone.

edgar, Les Baroques was great.

hbg, Love that one by Julius, and Sophia's Hey Mambo was a great one, too. That Ritual Fire Dance was fantastic.

Dutchy, I especially enjoyed Armik's acoustic guitar Iola Del Sol and the visuals were lovely, too.

Today is this guy's birthday, so here he is doing Someone to Remember Me.

@edgarblythe,
edgar, The Paratrooper's song was hilarious. Was that Pegasus?

I think Russell Watson's song was based on this poem, Texas

Christina Rossetti
Remember


REMEMBER me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

another birthday boy is Teddy Wilson - playing " ALL OF ME " with Lester Young .

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC2LL7aaYgY

Quote:
Theodore Shaw "Teddy" Wilson (November 24, 1912 – July 31, 1986)[1] was an American jazz pianist. Described by critic Scott Yanow[2] as "the definitive swing pianist", Wilson's sophisticated and elegant style was featured on the records of many of the biggest names in jazz including Louis Armstrong, Lena Horne, Benny Goodman, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald. With Goodman, he was perhaps the first well-known black musician to play publicly in a racially integrated group. In addition to his extensive work as a sideman, Wilson also led his own groups and recording sessions from the late 1920s to the '80s.


( some mighty fine music being played this Saturday morning . )

@hamburgboy,
hbg, Loved Scott's Maple Leaf Rag. Know ever word to the song All of Me.Good one by Teddy and Lester.

The first time that I ever heard Scott was in the movie The Sting.

@edgarblythe,
edgar, thanks for the comment, and I have forgotten The Dave Clark Five. Catch Us If You Can was great.

Here's a surprise, today is Pete Best's birthday, and he was the drummer for the Beatles before Ringo Star.

@edgarblythe,
Harry and Miriam. What a team. I had forgotten about her.She actively campaigned against the South African system of apartheid.

How about a little Soul Train.
